To truly strengthen your energy against negative influence, from yourself or others, you must believe in yourself. You must believe you HAVE WHAT IT TAKES to allow, to push when necessary, and to never let your dream die. Only then can you accept support and allow it to help you move forward.

One Word.SLEEP.

Without sleep I am cranky. Without sleep I am uncharacteristically hungry.Without sleep I am over emotional.Without sleep I am impatient.

Wow, makes you want to call me to come over for coffee, doesn’t it? Yeah- I didn’t think so!

Without sleep I am whiny.Without sleep I make bad decisions.Without sleep I begin to believe the voices in my head.Without sleep I start to second-guess myself.

And that negativity out there circling me can see (with laser-focused precision) right into that chink in my optimistic and happy “armor” – and that is when it makes its attack.

A minimum of seven hours of sleep a night is one of my greatest sources of strength.

Heather Dominick – EnergyRICH®

I support myself with daily energy management tools, to both manage my energy and guard myself from negative influences on a regular basis. Managing my energy each day limits the effects and opportunities for negative influence to pop into my life.

I also surround myself with high level mentors, coaches, mastermind groups and an amazing supportive team. What I’ve really come to understand is that BEing with others who are just like you, who get you, connect with you and are your ongoing support network – is THE secret ingredient that creates accelerated results. (And accelerating your results keeps you far away from the low level energy of negative influence.) I also like to activate the EnergyRICH® Prosperity Principle of Collaboration – this supports removing comparing, competing and feeling limiting energies of jealousy and unworthiness.

I like to think of myself as having superpowers. I think we all have them, we just need to figure out what they are and how to use them (preferably for good, not evil).

My first superpower is my shield. I think of it as an energetic force field that surrounds me like glowing light, twelve inches in every direction. Nothing negative can penetrate my shield, and it is my most powerful protective tool.

I can activate it consciously when I know I’m heading into a situation where I’m likely to encounter criticism and judgment, or when I’m in a situation that suddenly calls for it. It has also started to come unbidden, letting me know that it’s really always there so I don’t need to absorb criticism anymore.

I know it may sound crazy, but visualizing the force field has helped me feel protected. I have become an objective observer when things get crazy around me because I’m seeing everything through a lens instead of being immersed in it. I can then decide what to do with the information I’m receiving–respond to it or ignore it, think about what I can learn from it, use it to gain insight into the person who’s sending it my way in the first place.

The next time the verbal daggers start heading your way, activate your shield. It’s already inside you, waiting for you to find the “On” switch. Once you feel safe, imagine the other superpowers you’ll be able to unleash!
